tbh to take delonte's quote to the next level

it's not about the player, it's about the man

Delonte > PP

 

[elcheato]

Delonte is a beast, he does the mid range pull ups like Kobe all the time.

 

[Mexi]

guys like Delonte, Jameer, you know other super college players who get picked late in the NBA show why they are great players

idc about potential. idc about what level they play on. if your good your good

thats why i think Hansbrough will be a good player.

and when i see little guys like JJ, Nate, Brooks succeed, I know Steph Curry is gonna kill. He's bigger than all them, but i dont care

 

[MapleLeaf]

seriously, i'm a SF away from compiling my complete dream team

C- Mbenga
PF- Birdman
SF- ?
SG- Delonte (In the words of Delonte, we play small, that's what we do)
PG- JJB

 

[The Young One]

course, no article on Delonte West would be complete without a visit to his classic interview on Page 2, in which he described what his idea of a romantic evening would be. Some highlights:

“So, I pick her up in my white convertible. From there, I’d have the music pumping on the radio. The Jim Jones pumping, you know, ‘Summer in Miami’ song pumping. Got to keep a little gangsta, you can’t be too soft. You can’t be in there playing some guy that’s crying, talking about don’t leave me and love me baby, wah wah and all that. So Jim Jones pumping and then from there, wind blowing through the hair, boom, we get straight to the point — we eat afterwards because I don’t want to kiss no onions. I don’t want to kiss you tasting like onions and steak and mushrooms and everything.”

“Yeah, we’re going to my yacht. We’ll pull up at the docks and got a guy waiting for us, open our door up and we walk down a lit-up dock and onto the yacht, where we have dinner set up on the boat and we just cruise out on the water. Sit down and have some dinner, some shrimps and steaks, keep it nice and breezy. Pop some bottles, some Moet Rose. The red Moet, we ain’t popping no Kristal, it tastes like urination. We ain’t popping no Kris, that’s $500 a bottle. It ain’t that serious. It ain’t going to get you drunk. Make sure you put that in there. We ain’t doing a $500 bottle, we’re doing a $99 wine and dine.”

“OK, so from there, we’re doing a midnight skinny-dipping jump. Alright? From there, hopefully she’s got money because I hope Jaws gets her, boom, make sure she got me in the will, bank, I’m good. Oh well, shark got her! Jaws got her. Nah, we ain’t going there.”

“One more thing: When we’re on the yacht eating, we’re going to have some Popeyes chicken. That’s for dinner. It’s to let her know, put a mental image on her mind, first and foremost, if you ain’t from the hood, you don’t like Popeyes chicken. Everyone there loves Popeyes chicken and the biscuits — phew. But that’s just getting it on her mind, saying, you know, ‘Yeah, I can wine and dine you, but I’m a little rough around the edges and I’m keeping it real with you. I can be romantic, but this is real, we’re going to eat some chicken tonight. Chicken and biscuits.”

This guy is my hero

i'll think of one

 

[MapleLeaf]

STill the greatest delonte line of all-time



I'm sure one day he'll top this though too

Same here. I have high hopes for Hansbrough in the NBA and I feel they will be reached, and Brooks is one of my favorite little guy impact players. He is speedy-quick and gets things done.

 

[RipCity32]

Go with Balkman Maple.

 

[Mexi]

Balkman always looks high

 

[RipCity32]

I don't know how you can like Delonte West.
He sounds illiterate.

 

[The Young One]

SWAG

 

[Mexi]

thats why JR will never win

i mean even Eddie House was normal until late in the season last year

 

[RipCity32]

SWAG

He is quickly becoming one of my favorite players in the league.
As well as Birdman.

 

[MapleLeaf]

na if anything we can play small at the guards and play big the rest and have birdman and turiaf at either the PF or SF

Balkman I don't know too much about, he looks cool, but you need to have that personality too. And we know Turiaf does.

Plus imagine Birdman and Turiaf on the same team, it'd be like the other team would never get a rebound

 

[The Young One]

thats why JR will never win

i mean even Eddie House was normal until late in the season last year

Lolz he sure did win today.

The real question is how can you not like delonte? He is like that funny uncle that you enjoy being around because of the g stuff he says.

 

[Lake Louise]

Yeah, I like Birdman, and I didn`t even realize when JR did that, all the eyes following him from the Lakers Bench.
